    Your custom button / “segmented control” looks a lot like the Holo-themed tabs. I think you want a ViewPager as introduced in http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/08/horizontal-view-swiping-with-viewpager.html

    Instead of 3 activities, you’ll create 3 fragments, created using a FragmentPagerAdapter. It will handle sliding for you when button is clicked (or if user swipes left/right.)

    You’ll want to pay particular attention to FragmentTabsPager found in http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/Support4Demos/src/com/example/android/supportv4/app/FragmentTabsPager.html and its associated layout file fragment_tabs_pager.xml in http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/Support4Demos/res/layout/fragment_tabs_pager.html
